HC 3-member bench to hear 3 Capitals petitions

6

The High Court of Andhra Pradesh has decided to restart hearings on all the 189 petitions against the Capital shifting. For this, a three-member bench has been formed with Chief Justice AK Goswami, Justice Joymalya Bagchi and Justice N. Jayasurya. In all probability, the bench will restart hearings next week itself.

The court hearings on all these cases were taken up during the previous CJ Maheswari. Once he was transferred following Jagan Reddy’s letter, the hearings came to a grinding halt. Once again, the cases came to the fore. The Jagan Reddy Government has started insisting on the early disposal of all these petitions so that it would be able to go ahead with the Capital shifting. Following a submission by the Advocate General, the fresh bench was formed.

As per records, the majority petitions sought the High Court’s orders to stall the Capital shifting. The petitioners argued that the decentralisation and the CRDA repeal bills were unconstitutional and illegal.

The Amaravati farmers were arguing that they sacrificed their lands only after the Government made huge promises to build the Capital City in their area. They said that the new Government committed breach of trust and violated the agreements that were signed between them.

    • Comparing local body elections and capital movement is a mistake.
      Local body are about your local issues and most of those were ‘ekagreevalu’. And they go towards ruling party always.
      But however courts need facts and truths. Not peoples mandate.

  1. ఎవడు సీఎం అయితే వాడిష్టమొచ్చినట్టు కాపిటల్ మార్చుకోవచ్చని కూడా చెప్పండి. లఫంగి నాయాలు 6093 గడు క్యాపిటల్కి 30000 acres కావాలి అన్నాడు. తర్వాత. మేము సపోర్ట్ చేస్తామన్నారు. అసెంబ్లీ లో సపోర్ట్ చేసాడు. ఈ రోజు పెంట తింటున్నాడు 6093 గాడు. మాడ గాడు ఢిల్లీ కంటే మంచి క్యాపిటల్కడదామని చెప్పాడు. 6093 ని సపోర్ట్ చేస్తూ జైలుకి పోకుండా కాపాడుతున్నాడు. ఈ డాంగ్ నాయాళ్ళు అందరూ కలిసి ఆంధ్ర ని సర్వ నాశనం చేస్తున్నారు. తు వీళ్ళింట్లో పీనుగులు లెగవ.

    • Don’t think so.
      The CRDA act on which the farmers made agreement was passed in the assembly and legitimated by governer’s signature.
      Hence even if you disolve it in current government it was active earlier and courts will consider that.
      This case will take longer that what people expect.
      In mean time neither Amaravati is being developed nor ysrcp can say vizag is capital.
      It’s a deadlock . And real losers are people of AP
